Ear-to-ear grins!

Ahh! We found a new location for our shop!!! We will be taking over the space with the blue awning! Isn't it cute?! It's still located in the Exchange District, which is the area of town that our current location is in, so it's nice that we get to stay in the neighborhood! We will still be sharing the space with the owner of our current shop, Vintage Glory, except we are totally starting fresh with a new name, new ideas and a new look!

We get possession of the new space on November 1st, and we plan on doing some renovations to make the shop look extra pretty, so we should be opening our doors in mid November! We are officially signing the lease on Monday, but we are just bursting with excitement and couldn't wait til then to spill the beans!

Here is a closer photo of what the shop looks like now... (it's currently a cute retro-inspired convenience store) We love all of the potential for cute displays in the big windows!

Thanks for all of the support and kind words over the past couple weeks! It really lifted our spirits after hearing such disappointing news! We have the best readers, we love you guys! Be sure to stay tuned tomorrow when we share the second part of our good news! This week just keeps getting better & better! ;)

Happy weekend lovelies!

Things are lookin' up...


Today started off like any other day: woke up, ate breakfast, and got ourselves to work. But little did we know that once we got to work, our day and plans would be completely turned upside down... only this time for the better!

We have two pieces of  really really  exciting news that we can't wait  to share with you!!! But we can't tell you until all of the plans are finalized... but that will hopefully be happening tomorrow morning! Yay!!!

Throughout all of the craziness during the past two weeks, we have done our best to stay positive, and this really goes to show that focusing on the good really pays off and that everything happens for a reason!

Stay tuned lovelies...
Lots of love,
Erin & Stef

Sharing circle.


We recently updated our About Us page and are currently in the process of making a FAQ page,
 so now we gotta ask: is there anything you wanna know about us?

Over the past few month's we've been sharing little snippets of our personal lives, but maybe we didn't cover everything that you are curious about, so now is a great opportunity to ask us! We have really enjoyed getting to know our lovely readers and we think that it would be great for you to get to know us a bit better!

So, if there is anything that you were wondering about, no matter how silly it may be, please feel free to leave a comment on this post and we will do our best to include your question in our new FAQ page!

Thanks lovelies!
Stef & Erin

The facts were these...

Lately we have been re-watching the tv show "Pushing Daisies" which ran from 2007-2009. It was and probably still is one of our favorite shows of all time. Why it was cancelled, is beyond us. If you haven't seen it, rent it, or download it (not that we support this, but it is often hard to find!)

The visual aesthetic of this show was truly amazing! The costumes, the sets, everything was so pleasing to the eye! On top of that it was funny and super sweet. What more could you ask for?

Meet Ned! Such a cutie pie (ha no pun intended!). He posseses the gift of being able to bring people back to life momentarily, just by touching them. The person can only stay alive for 60 seconds, or else someone else in the vicinity will die in their place once the 60 seconds pass, and a second touch leaves them dead again, forever. Did we mention he's super adorable and he owns a pie shop called "The Pie Hole", as in shut your.

This is Chuck, Ned's childhood sweetheart who he can't touch. You have to watch to understand why!

Meet Olive (nice name!), she works in the pie shop.

These are Chuck's aunts, also known as the "Darling Mermaid Darlings".

On the left is the cycnical Emerson Cod, a private investigator that solves murders with Ned & Chuck!

Chuck has the most amazing wardrobe on the show!

Here's a prime example: The most beautiful city morgue in the whole wide world!

And of course, there are the pies!

 The fridge is the most dreamy fridge we've ever seen!

 I love the fact that Ned installed a divider in his car so that they wouldn't touch! He also put in a big glove so they could hold hands through the divider-cute!

 This ambulance is INSANE!

So is this house!

The amazing "cheese box".

We hope you watch it and love it as much as we do! We would tell you more about it, and it may sound kind of crazy, but trust us, you will love it!

All photos were taken from screenshots as we re-watched the show!
